Scientific paper

Intercosmos-19 vertical sounding data and ship measurements confirm the conclusion of Balev et al. (1976) that at least one local large-scale zone with anomalously low electron density is regularly observed in the near-equatorial nighttime F-region during the winter solstice. At base heights, the decrease can amount to 1-2 orders of magnitude; at the layer maximum, the decrease is by 2-4 times, this decrease extending from the base to the F2-layer maximum, and possibly higher.
